Moonriver’s current lease period on the Kusama network will expire on or about December 25, 2023. In September, 2023, The Moonbeam Foundation successfully secured a new parachain slot for Moonriver on Kusama covering lease periods 33 through 40.

**This proposal is a necessary step to extending Moonriver’s Kusama lease period through September, 2024 by executing a “swap” of lease periods.**

If the swap is not completed before December 25, 2023, Moonriver will not occupy an active parachain slot and would stop producing blocks.
